gah...i don't know...as soon as possible! I'm hoping to get some parts in this week and maybe after thanksgiving i can have it done. I'm probably going to start prepping the engine bay for paint, probably going to paint it with rattle cans instead of pulling out all the stops on the real paint guns...although i do need to shoot the hood...hmmmmmm

I finally got the set of Can Can red seats transplanted into my 924s today. Had to run a lead from the battery into the car for the power seat and drill the early rails to work on the passenger side seat. But i got it all in and it all works. Too bad i was stupid and chose the e-brake bolt as my ground, now the e-brake light stays on unless i unplug it. Ill fix it another day.

The seats look bad *** with the black interior, i need a few more red accents and it will be perfect.

Ran the car for the first time yesterday at a local track day. Did pretty well, minus some braking issues. I hit a tire chicane

No sir, Adams Motorsports Park in Riverside which is an oversized kart track Definitely a good time, and at $20 for a 1 hour session you can't go wrong.

removed the crappy old renegade hybrids needle pilot bearing and installed a new Texas Performance Concepts pilot bearing adapter with a 944 roller pilot bearing, pulled the car back in the garage and stared at it for a while trying to figure out a game plan for painting the engine bay. Got a clutch disk in the mail! woot!

Took the car off jack stands after a clutch job, went for a SHORT drive...found that my clutch doesn't hold after 3k rpm, and I have fuel delivery issues
